The Museum Of Snack Foods

by Tracy

And have not eaten, until now.

I buy a lot of snack foods on a whim.

Then I take them home and shove them in cupboards and don’t eat them. I am running out of cupboard space and must make my way through them. This is my journey.

List of posts:

Pupa

People who need pupa are the pluckiest people

A taste test of canned silkworm pupa, including video. Not to be missed.

    @travit I did, too! It’s overwhelming to see your life’s work all on one page.

    @Caroline me, too! Especially since I have a taste memory of a lot of these foods. Some were pretty tasty though.

    @Kim Hey, you gotta admit the Pickle Pops were at least intriguing!

    @BloggerDad I think that’s what I’m going to do with it. I’ve noticed a lot of visitors who land on a food post poke around to see more, so perhaps this will make it easier for them.

    Wow! Today my brother called me and the first words out of his mouth were “Amy…do you know if they still make “Whole Chicken in a Can”? I have no idea what made him think of “Whole Chicken in a Can”, but this led to some Googling and the discovery of your amazing blog. Wow…that chicken slime was somethin’. Glad there are other brave souls out there testing the untestable! Keep up the good work!!!

    Oh my!

    I thought of you the other day while eating an interesting sandwich—–chunk chicken, cheese, couscous, french fries, and chunky coleslaw, all on a large bun. That’s what I got when I ordered a “chicken hamburger” from a cafe (Eastern Europe). I wish I had taken a picture.

    Somebody actually canned pork brains? And then someone else eats it?

    Where in the world did you find these bizarre items?

    Some of those snacks look crazy. I’ll have to go through and check out your takes on all of them.

    Which of these would you say were the best/worst? I’ve never tried most of these, but Leibniz biscuits are generally very nice. The whole canned chicken is quite a strange concept. Interesting post!

    That’s an amazing array of canned and packaged goods, some look more appetizing than others, think I’ll skip the raw beef cheeks. Nice post :)

    No offense intended. All of this was very interesting, but just looking at some of those things made me nauseous. I have no idea how you were able to try that stuff without puking. I looked up chicken in a can because I saw it on Food Networks, Chopped. It looked gross on there too, but you didn’t get an up close look like you did here. I had never heard of such a thing.
